MIR. Horace Bradley is in town to
day mingling with his many friends.
MIR. Reuben Howell and Miss Ida
Hartsell were married last Wednesday
in the Indian Territory. Miss Ida's
parents opposed the match, hence the
trip to the Territory. They returned
Thursday, the connubial knot tied,
and received the forgiveness and bless
ings of the directors. The DEMOCRAT
wishes them all the joy and prosperity
an honorable life can bring.

News reached us last week of ia
| tal.affray in Galley Rock township be-
tween two colored men named Tread
we'll and Holcomb. Treadwe was de-
| voted to Hnlcomb's daughter, but had
| been forbidden the house by the girls
father. Meeting him in the road a
quarrel ensued over the matter, result
ing in Treadwell shooting the old man
in the head, killing him almost Instant
| ly. Treadwel made his escape, and
was still at large at last account.
Bring the money when you want
anything in our line. Don't say you
will pay for it tomorrow, or first of the
| week, or first of the month, for that
kind of credit has not been very sue
cessful to us. j. M. HARKEY & BRO.
Last Tuesday the comfortable
prairie home of Capt. j. M. Harkey,
one mile east of town, was
the scene of pleasant gathering
of friends to celebrate the 32d
marriage anniversary of the Captain
and his estimable wife, and it was an
event that will be remembered by those
| who were present. The cordial well
come of the host and hostess was it
ting prelude to the delightful season of
enjoyment which followed. The din
ner was superb and abounded in good
things. Besides the family were pres
ent: Capt. w. NJ. Peeler and wife, Mr..
j. L.. Tucker and wife, Mrs. Judge
Davis, Mrs. Jefferson Davis, Miss Lou
| Parish, Mrs. Moseley, DR.. G. w. Har-
key and the DEMOCRAT reporters. Late
in the afternoon the party returned to
town, wishing the genial Captain and
his agreeable lady many returns of their
marriage anniversary.
All persons who mortgage their
personal property and crops to the mer-
chants must make arrangements with
clnes, as we positively will not credit
them. j. NJ HARKEY.
